Brownie Camping: Headbands

You know how on Survivor they have Buffs that designate each team? Well, when we go camping with Brownies I have been known to try to re-create the idea with dollar store head scarfs, hair bands or scrunchies for the different patrol groups.

But these headbands (Tutorial: Sew a fabric headband from //Between the Lines//) would work beautifully – and you could colour coordinate them to your theme. (Note: I am suggesting that a Crafty Guider could make these in advance. Probably not a great Brownie age craft – but maybe for Guides or older?).

NEW again … at our last camp we bought strips of cotton t-shirt material and cut it up into strips and had the girls just tie them at the back for headbands or neckerchiefs. It was super easy and we’ll do this again for sure. The neat thing was that the cotton jersy wouldn’t fray. And we didn’t have to do any sewing.
